Cancer Waiting Times

The two-week wait standard has been removed and instead, patients can be told to expect a cancer diagnosis or rule-out of cancer within 28 days of being referred from their GP or cancer screening programme.

This is an improvement on the previous standard, in which patients were told they will see a specialist within 14 days, with no measurement of when test results or diagnoses would  be communicated.

It is important to attend the first appointment they are given (which may be for an investigation or via telephone).
